Fabolous Arrested on Charges of Domestic Violence: Report

Fabolous was arrested Wednesday night after allegedly hitting his longtime girlfriend, the “Love and Hip Hop” star Emily B (real name Emily Bustamante), TMZ reports. The rapper, born John David Jackson, turned himself in to police in Englewood, New Jersey after Emily B reported the alleged assault, according to TMZ. He was reportedly booked on felony charges of aggravated assault and making a terroristic threat. Pitchfork has emailed Jackson’s representatives for comment.

Update (03/30 12:08 p.m.): More details about Jackson’s alleged assault have emerged via court documents, as the Fader reports (via NorthJersey.com). The documents reportedly reveal that Jackson told Bustamante in a text on May 7 that he wanted to hit her with a baseball bat and that he would kill her but “did not want to go out like that.” At some point following that incident, the documents say Bustamante was punched in the face seven times, “causing severe damage to her two front teeth.” She later lost her two front teeth as a result of the attack, according to the documents.

Jackson also allegedly made threats against Bustamante’s father and brother, saying that he “had a bullet for them” after returning to his home and finding that they had removed handguns from the house he shared with Bustamante. NorthJersey.com reports that the Englewood PD have issued a statement saying Jackson has been released from police custody following his arrest.
